Having an impact on the young kids and growing adults is the best thing one can offer to this world. I believe in being a mentor for all, knowing that they will benefit from it. Not too long ago I graduated from the College of St. Joseph where I played collegiate basketball and mentored the youth. I recently came back from overseas (Ireland) where I continued the path of impacting their youth by mentoring and coaching them, as well as playing professional basketball. METCO has opened my eyes more on how much more I can offer to youth today!

Making a meaningful impact on young people and emerging adults is one of the most valuable contributions one can offer to the world. I am passionate about serving as a mentor, knowing that my guidance can help shape their future success. I recently graduated from Rhode Island College, where I not only excelled in collegiate basketball but also dedicated time to mentoring youth. Most recently, I continued this mission in Johnston, RI, where I furthered my commitment to empowering young people through coaching and mentorship. The METCO program stands out as a powerful resource that fosters meaningful relationships with students, enriching their lives and academic experiences in ways that leave a lasting, positive impact.
